Sir Charles was the best tour guide i could have asked for, he explained everything perfectly
They picked us and drop us out at the hotel, the place we slept in was pretty nice surrounded by nature and they gave nice food. Sir Charles managed to show us all big five and explained a lot about each of them so we could understand how the animals live.
We also visited a masai village which was really interesting. I would recommend this tour.

Excellent!
We were on safari for the first time. We didn't know what to expect, but everything went perfectly! The guide named Kikitu is very cheerful and has a great sense of humor! He was attentive to every guest, gave us a lot of interesting and useful information. The guide tried to show us all the animals! We saw everyone except the rhino. I hope that next time he will show it to us! Kikitu, you're doing great!

Amazing Budget Safari, highly recommend
The 6-day safari tour to Masai Mara, Lake Naikuru and Amboseli NP was amazing and I can highly recommend it!! Thanks to our experienced guide and driver Sir Charles, we saw countless animals: Lions, giraffes, elephants, a cheetah, a leopard, a rhino, lots of buffalo, antelope and wild boar. We had plenty of time to observe the animals and our guide told us lots of exciting facts about the animals.
As we were traveling in the rainy season, it was a great advantage to be in a 4x4 jeep. Our talented driver managed to get out of even the deepest mud! And the drives on dirt roads were a lot of fun too!
The safari was a budget safari so we knew it wouldn't be luxurious. The vehicle was not new but overall in good condition. However, my biggest criticism is that many of the seats did not have working seatbelts. As the traffic in Kenya is very dangerous, I think they should replace these to give tourists a safe ride!
Apart from the first one (which was still okay except for a totally broken mosquito net - so better bring your own), the accommodation was really great and exceeded my expectations.
The meals were all included and most of the more local dishes were really delicious! We only had to buy our own water as the one from the company ran out after a day.
In terms of optional activities during the trip, I can recommend visiting the Masai village next to the Masai Mara (20 dollars). You get an insight into their daily life and they tell you a bit about their culture. Of course, they also try to sell souvenirs. However, I cannot recommend the boat tour on Lake Naivasha as it was quite expensive (20 dollars) and not that interesting.
Overall, it was a great trip that I really enjoyed and would highly recommend if you are keen on seeing all the beautiful animals and the African savanna!!

We had a wonderful safari! Saw, lions, cheetah with cubs, leopard, hippos, giraffes, zebras, wilder beasts and other animals! Our guide, Jonney, was very friendly and did his best to get us up close to some of the animals! Would recommend him highly!

Our Safari guide, Solomon gave us an experience of a lifetime!
Our entire tour was perfect from start to finish. Our guide, Solomon was knowledgeable, considerate, kind and made our entire experience above and beyond comfortable! We visited three National Parks with lots of traveling and saw hundreds of animals along every stop. Solomon shared his knowledge of the parks and animals and he went out of his way to make sure we found the best that nature/wildlife had to offer on the day. We learned so much about the native species, birds, and animals because of his knowledge. We left with full hearts and full bellies every single day. We are forever grateful we booked with Jocky tours and were fortunate to have Solomon as our guide. Solomon gave us an experience that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

Unforgettable Amazing experience!
First off if I could give more than 5 stars I would! Jocky Tours were great, I highly recommend booking a safari with them.
Our guide Solomon was AMAZING! He cares deeply for the land, people and animals. He is an expert in and out of the parks. Ask any question and he has the answer. He went above and beyond with everything! Very very good guide, you will not be disappointed! Asante Sana for Everything!
